In addition to the issues described earlier, I filed a bug in parallel about kicad freezing after closing pcbnew where fpinfo-cache writing to network locations would take 10s (not a network speed issue). https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1838209
Global cache should not be written everytime pcbnew is closed to project folder. Every time I open pcbnew from kicad main app, and then immediately close pcbnew, I have to wait 10 secs for the main app to respond while it's writing the fp-info-cache.
